Pirate Party

I just realized I have been neglectful in my craftylilmomma duties and haven’t posted pictures from my son Owen’s birthday party (bad mommy, slaps self on hand).  He requested a “Pirates of the Caribbean / Lego” party and I had a blast putting everything together for him.  Now I’m not one of these moms that can spend a months salary on birthday parties but it still turned out awfully cute if I do say so myself.

Most of the accessories I used were purchases from Rhode Island Novelty or from Oriental Trading.  I got the banner, plates, and treasure chest from Hobby Lobby.

Ultimate under the sea party invite

I had a client contact me saying she loved the pirate/mermaid invite I had done and would like something similar for her twins birthday.  The party they were having was a pool party so she wanted it more of an “under the sea” party with the pirates and mermaids included.  So I took my theme and modified it to include all the cute creatures of the deep…enjoy!

Eli & Amistad - Pirate / Mermaid invitation

This invitation was for a dual party where the boy wanted pirates and the girl wanted mermaids.  It took some work and a lot of patience but I think I finally got everything working together and in the right spots :)  What do you think?
